Pro and Con: a love story

She is beautiful,
nice,
articulate;

I am wary,
cynical,
shy.

She makes my heart beat fast.

She makes my brain stupid.

Young.

Young.

Did I mention beautiful?

Seductive.

Innocent.

Unrealistic.

Wants to stay.

Has to leave.

Loves my writing.

Hasn’t read the darker stuff.

Virgin…

virgin.

Talks to me anyway.

maybe it could happen...

Seems to like me.

I fall for it.

Says she’ll write.

Doesn’t.
